I am not aware of such a thing but could probably fabricate a prototype. Do you think there is a market for such a thing?

I don't know about everyone else, but I'd buy something like that for sure.

PCGS, NGC, ANACS, ICG and NNC slabs are all different sizes and shapes. So it could not be standardized.

Denco. I have an extensive background in engineering and high-tech manufacturing. I have some straightforward ideas for standardization for the various slab sizes to create a secure and affordable design.

Yeah, but that is not what I have in mind at all. It would be significantly more durable, be constructed of different material, and have a completely different look and feel. The slabs would be secure whether the "album" was held upside down, dropped, or otherwise mishandled. Should I make a prototype I will post it.

I only know of two manufacturers of slab albums, Lighthouse and Eagle.
And they are generic. i.e., not set specific.

They do the job BUT get to be a bit klunky depending on the number of pages involved.
You fill a 5-page Eagle album (9 slabs per page) and it gets a bit heavy and difficult to deal with.
I know since I've been using them for quite a few years.
